Seriously! Cindy of
Jacob's Reward Farm spins like a bullet train, runs a 4-minute mile-spinning version. She spun and plied this
Cordova Studios Paprika super-wash merino batt in less than one hour and fifteen minutes on her Louet S10 wheel.
She decided to spin it thick 'n thin and then, plied it with lustrous green thread. I watched amazed.
I was over on the warm-up track just jogging along with Mary Cassett, "Mother and Child" inspired roving by Taos Sunflower. More on it tomorrow.
I left Cindy last night at 10:30 (yes, I know, waaaaaay past my bedtime) planning on how to ply this Cordova Studios Forest Glen Artsy batt which she spun up, again in record time. I just gape at her spinning alacrity.
This, "Dreamin'" of Spring Artsy Batt...
...became this on Terri's Louet Spinning wheel. Terri has been spinning for less that a year. Isn't she amazing? I love the shiny rayon or silk thread she chose to ply it with the yarn.
Makes me want to head down to the studio right now to card few more for the shop. Color and texture are like drugs to me. I have to have them!
